    Starting to think myself the Germans not what Steve Bruce thought or why is he not getting more game time .... Maybe he will start v Crystal Palace and we can get a better idea ...

    Something doesn't seem right Charlie and I'm sure you must be wondering by now ?

    The thing is for Steve Bruce he is used to spending big on strikers. He brought Asamoah Gyan and Darren Bent for around 10-15M each. So spending 2.5M on a striker didnt seem that much to him. 2M+ is alot to spend on 1 player when you are in this league. And if he do spend that you need to see some sort of return pretty early else people start to get on the players back

    I bet Charles cries himself to sleep every night knowing that for they could have signed Knockaert with that 2.5M they wasted on Prossie

    Yeah I am but all I am saying is that had he had a chance, which because of Jay and Sone he hasn't, then he would have given us more then what he has done this season!

    I bet you you are crying to yourself every night knowing that you could have got Aluko, who is much better then that Knockaert guy.

    Thanks for your detailed appraisal of a player you've never actually seen play.

    Very useful.

    Knockaert has a hell of a lot of ability now and he is nowhere near the finished article. While Aluko isn't the finished article either but he doesn't have the potential of Knockaert

    From what I've been told, Knockaert is a brilliant player and a great prospect. Without trying to have Hull bias here, I do truly believe that Aluko is the Championship's next big thing when Zaha leaves for better things.

    Aluko has that drive about him, goes back to his own half and pushes the team up and with 8 goals and how ever many assists, he's certainly doing his part. My Leicester loving family have said Knockaert doesn't really go back for the ball, but stays in dangerous positions and seems to weave magic on and off the ball when the team is attacking.

    Great win for us at the weekend, I am never confident about away games, and would have taken a point, definitely wasn't expecting a win. Sounds like we played really well though, good for Marshall to get back on the scoresheet.

    As for the Aluko/Knockaert debate that this thread seems to have turned in to... Aluko was always sh*te on FM, just had pace and that was it. When he was playing well for Rangers I didn't pay much attention as, well, it's Scotland and Samaras and Anthony Stokes can set the SPL alight. But from the little I've seen of him he actually looks like he has some talent, the goal he scored against Bristol City was a good move and well taken, wouldn't have minded signing him at Leicester so fair play to you.

    Just as happy with Knockaert on the other hand...

    No, he's not playing him because he prefers Aluko and Simpson.

    He's not playing Evans either, he's picking Olofinjana ahead of him and he really is ****.

    Stick to discussing topics you have some knowledge of, otherwise you just look like a tit.

    If Prossie was half decent he would be at least coming off the bench every week. Simpson hasnt scored for ages and you lot was saying you needed Fryatt become apparently while he's been injured he has become a "composed" finisher

    Prossie is ****. We all know

    Because most Leicester fans aren't like you !

    Your Board and ours seem the two most used ones so why shouldn't people chat with each other ?

    Had Leicester to win in my bet Jack Lesterfan . Got let down by Gillingham and Hull City so no win on Saturday ..

    You won at middlesborough when Boro where on form so Wednesday away was a nailed on win for LcFc
